Greetings! First-time posting but long-time lurking here at the ANN. I've been mining and minting DMD 24/7 for roughly 18 months. I wish I had good news to share with my introduction, but unfortunately I am here today out of concern. Hopefully someone from this fine community can offer some insight or perhaps point me towards a more appropriate venue to seek answers.
The pretext: I have only one DMD wallet and use the default address provided. I have never generated other addresses within this wallet nor have I ever used a second wallet. In early March when Miningfield went offline, I began solo mining. The wallet and miner have always worked flawlessly and I was quite content with the rewards.
Today I noticed that every solo-mined POW payout I received over the last 2 months apparently sits at a new address. Actually a couple addresses. These addresses do not appear in the "Receive coins" list but are displayed as the receiving address for each block found. I looked at these addresses in the explorer and a Guesstimated Wallet of "none" is reported for each.
I ran "checkwallet" and "repairwallet". I make regular wallet backups and tried various dates. I tried the December blockchain from the link on page 1 and it syncs fine. I found no evidence of system intrusion, tampering, or corruption. The miner settings have not changed and all references are to the original default address, yet payouts still go (apparently at random) to one of these new addresses. I even tried a fresh install on a different machine and the anomalous addresses still appear in the ledger. What variables have I missed?
The wallet displays the correct balance but I'm hesitant to try and move these coins around without better understanding. This seems coincidental with all the v2.1 testing going on recently. How is it possible to receive coins with an address not generated by the wallet?
Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
